David's 2nd Birthday Party!

We had a Sesame Street themed party for David's birthday at the local Little Gym on Saturday. Although a little chaotic at times (they only gave me 15 minutes to set everything up), we had such a blast and enjoyed celebrating with our friends and family. Thank you everyone for making this such a memorable birthday!

David started the party off not in the best of spirits because he would have rather ate his cake and play with his presents than go play in the gym with all his friends. Which didn't fair well when we told him "no" on his birthday. We solved the problem by allowing him to take a present in the gym with him. It worked for a little while, but I think he was a little overwhelmed and hungry so we had a snack break with his friend Lachlann while the others enjoyed the festivities.

After the gym activities were complete David was escorted into the party room to his "special chair." It is funny because at that moment you could tell by his actions and facial expressions that he knew it was "his" birthday party and that was "his special chair." At one point he got up from his chair, fought through the crowd of parents and kiddos to check on "Ga" and "Pappa" (my parents). When he was done talking with them he fought the crowd of people once again to get back to his specific seat. It was crazy how he just knew!

All in all it was a fantastic party!! We had some malfunctions with our camera......bad mommy the memory card was full so it was not working properly or as quickly has we had hoped. I also did not get a chance to take a picture of the party favor table; which I am super bummed about. I put a lot of effort into planning out the gifts and worked with a lot of fabulous people on etsy that made my ideas come to fruition. So, I thought I would post their pictures of the items for my own personal memory/documentation purposes, to share the cuteness with y'all, and to give a shout out to these creative people! They did such a wonderful job!!
